Thank you so much,
I spent hours finding this bug, concluding it could be solved with a simple echo “”;
it makes you feel so stupid.
But thanx alot.
However in php4 the oncomplete event was triggered automaticcaly.

echo (”");
flush();
worked for my legacy PHP image uploader.
Thanks

Well I did all those listed above but still i could not make it to work on mac. here’s my upload script:
foreach ($_FILES as $fieldName => $file) {
$uploadFileName = $file['name'];
$secret_test = $secret_test . $uploadFileName;
$content1 = str_replace(” “, “_”,$uploadFileName);
$content = ‘_’.$content1;
move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'],$path.DS.$uploadFileName);
}
where do i place my echo here?
BTW its a multi image upload also. Any information or correction on my code would be helpful. Thanks.

Thank you very much! This worked perfectly for me… just put echo(”1″); after your upload script, and that should cause the onComplete handler to fire on macs.
Thanks again!

Excellent fix, thanks for posting.
However, this behavior doesn’t seem like a bug (but I know, it is a bug). The fact that our scripts should tell flash that the upload actually worked seems like a smart thing to do.
In fixing this, I would find it a plus if Adobe required that some response was written that could be checked, as this would make our applications that rely on Flash file uploads more flexible if an error did occur during upload.

Only Aral’s trick worked for me (PHP):
die(’&bError=0&’);
And even so it takes between 0.5 to 1 second to actually fire up the event.
It’s awesome that after so many time this is not in the reference itself…
Thanks a lot for sharing

The final solution is that the server script responds ‘&bError=0&’
in PHP could it be
die(’&bError=0&’);
echo ‘&bError=0&’; exit;
etc.
